Twist Out Half Hawk Style Tutorial

Yo yo yo! Wassup my Lovlies?

Very late but here it is. The latest styling video from me.



 I'm not going to be doing anymore for a while as I've FINALLY installed the braids I had been planning to.

I am hoping to leave them in for 2 months as I work very odd hours in A/C. Whatever is best for my hair right now, I'm up for. Since YouTube wouldn't allow me to post the photo, here it is.

My superfly Grandmother and I. This lady means the world to me.

Nope, not the hubby, lol. But yes, I know he's a good looking dude. Runs in the blood ya'll, :-D.

Okay guys. I'll catch you later! Don't forget to tell me what you want to see in the future either here or on the Facebook page.

My Hair: Styling My Twisted Faux Hawk

Ello, ello my lovelies!

I hope you guys are having a great day! As promised here are three ways to style the style :-).

All you need are a few hairpins.

 Style #1- Side Swept

 Pull all of the hair over to one side! So simple :-D. You may need to pin the twists from the cornrows in place. Gravity...lol. Check out the bonus pic to see what I mean.

 


Style #2 - Bumped!

Bumped!

Create a small pomp with the twists that make up your bang. Keep in place with your hand for now.

Just ignore the background :-p

Take the twists from the cornrows on either side of your head and pin the pomp into place by pinning the twists strategically.

Fluff your bump and that's it!

Style #3 - Get loose!

That's right, Just unravel your twists for a banging twistout! I did not want my hair out of it's protective style just yet however so I just sacrificed one twist :-D

I did remember to take a few photos on wash day tho. Excuse the fuzz, I did say it was wash day :-D. And a hot day too...no, I am not naked! Just greasy, lol.

That's it ppls!. I hope you enjoyed this post. Feel free and encouraged to try this style with it's many variations! 

When you do, send your photos to msnatuallyinclined@gmail.com so I can see and if you don't mind, I'll share your fly style on the Facebook page so be sure to like the page to get all the updates.

As always,

LOL, Gravity as it's finest.

My Hair: Half Hawk Tutorial

Yo yo yo! Wassup?

Lol. That's something I started a few months ago when me cousin called. It is thee funniest story but quite long so onto other more pertinent matters.

My hair! Which is why you're reading, lol. I don't have any editing software at the moment and for me to record without stopping would be such a waste of your time to watch that I decided to do a picture slideshow instead.

 I started with an old twist out. I unravelled any defined clumps prior to detangling and moisturizing.

I lightly spritzed my hair with a water and glycerin mix, moisturized my hair with Organics Olive Oil Leave-In Conditioner, detangled, then sealed with Jojoba Oil.

Step 1.
Part your hair from ear to ear, leaving the majority of hair to the back. Band the back for now as we'll be working on the front for a while. Part the front into three large sections from back to front with the middle section being the largest.

Step 2.
Plait or flat twist the side section into cornrows leading to the center. I choose to do four but you can do as many as you like. Repeat with the other side.

Step 3.
Begin twisting! I twisted the hair at the crown of my head forward towards my face for a banged look. I also twisted it smaller as this section of my head has little to no real curl definition on it's own. I have to keep it well stretched. And no, I will not go into the typing thing.

Step 4.
Twist the back portion however you would like. I choose to do medium sized twists with arced parting. You don't see any parting when the hair falls naturally with the arcs and my hair will look really full when I choose to unravel the twists for a twist out.

That's it! The only thing hard about this style is that I had difficulties plaiting up the sides. It would have been much easier to flat twist it but I wanted it to last a little longer than flat twists would allow. 

If you follow me on Facebook, you'll know that I've been having some severe migraines recently. That's why my clothes are different, because I had to wait until the next day to finish my hair. But it really doesn't take long at all.

I finished it the next morning and that evening was my Super D's Birthday Party!! Whoop Whoop! Epic balloon battles were had that night. Epic.

Have you tried this style before? Want to try it? What would you do or have you done different? 

Let me know in the comments section and you can send your photos to msnaturallyinclined@gmail.com! I'll post them here and on the Facebook page to show everyone how fly you are! Make sure to click 'Like' on the page. Thanks.

Have a wonderful day my lovelies!!

My Hair

Yo ppls. I am in a funky sorta mood today...just funky. I feel as if a bad mood might be coming on( I'm a really moody person )-: ) so I'm going to fight that off, rebuke the devil and praise the Lord. That always makes me feel better :-).

Soo, my hair today. Well, truthfully, it was my hair yesterday and the day before but let's not focus on that, shall we? Cornrows and twists.

Aren't they some of the sexiest twists ever?! Yes, I think so too :-D. I moisturized my ends with my shea butter mix and twisted with my FOTE Aloe Vera Gel. I love that stuff. It gives me hold without crunch and moisturizes as well. Plus!!

I was copying this style from someone on Youtube and it was only when I was finished I realized that I've been wearing this same style for YEARS!!! Since I was in primary school!! I couldn't believe how stupid I was dred!! I have even worn this style while natural!






Check it out. These photos were taken March 19, 2010. This was, of course, before the dye job from hell that resulted in orange hair. Look at the length and fullness... my stupidity in dyeing my hair makes me want to cry right about now...

The only way not to dwell on this stuff is to not think about it...and to avoid looking at old photos -_-.

Speaking of photos, my Picasa web albums is getting full so I was thinking of creating a Fotki account. Just something else to think about. 

Please keep me in your prayers this week, I have a couple hard decisions and tests ahead of me shortly. Any prayer requests, let me know and I'll keep you in mine. Until next time..

God Bless!

Love,

Lee♥♥♥.
